BOOTP Configuration Method (default) B-5

Based on this configuration, the BOOTPTAB file looks like:

#Legend:gw -- gateways #ha -- hardware address #ht -- hardware type(1) #ip -- host IP address #sm -- subnet mask

#vm -- BOOTP vendor extensions format(2) #tc -- template host

#Default string for each type of Ethernet client defaults5E: ht=1:vm=rfc1048

#Entries for SLC 5/05 processors:

sigma1: tc=defaults5E:ip=12.34.56.1:ha=0000BC1D1234

sigma2: tc=defaults5E:ip=12.34.56.2:ha=0000BC1D5678

sigma3: tc=defaults5E:ip=12.34.56.3:ha=0000BC1D9012

Both utilities are located in the C:\ABIC\BIN directory and use the information contained in the BOOTPTAB file.

Be sure to place the BOOTPTAB file in the directory from which you are running the BOOTP utility. If this file is not found in that directory, the utility will try to find the file in the directory specified by the environment variable ABIC_CONFIG.
